I've written a program to play internet radio streams using an embedded Windows Media Player. It works fine but sometimes the title of the track currently playing is wrong. e.g. "Emerson, Lake and Palmer" will be displayed as "Emerso" - the string being terminated at the character before the first comma. I use
AxWindowsMediaPlayer1.currentMedia.getItemInfo("Title")
to get the title information and if it doesn't contain a comma, it's fine. I'm guessing this is a problem with WMP as using the standalone program shows the same error. Is there any way around this problem or can someone suggest another media player I could embed to play radio streams?
